    Hello everyone! I’m a 17yo male who’s been masturbating and watching porn for roughly 4 years. I understand the detriment that this has on my physical and mental health and want nothing more than to be able to control my own mind again. I’ve made a few attempts at stopping, but I always relapse hard, masturbating around twice a day. I figured that joining a community of people like me may help me along my journey. I’m happy to be here.

  3. Heyyy welcome to the NoFap forum : ) It's nice to see you here fighting the good fight alongside us!

    Here is just some advice:

    First and foremost please take a look at each section in the forum, there might be something(s) you may find of big help to you. Feel free to post there :+)

    Then secondly I just strongly advise you to be active on your profile(as there quite a few active people in the profile section). Please start by choosing an avatar and then make daily status posts to show you're active and needing support/encouragement. They've also got a neat little feature that shows freshly posted statuses for all users to see. People will find your profile and give you encouragement/support.

    People (are beginning to) love communicating in the profile section..(it should be and is )mostly spportive talk but it doesn't hurt to deviate from supportive talk. It would be great to have you join in and support others in the threads, profiles, and journal, we could always use your help and in return you shall receive some as well!

    Thirdly, You should also highly consider creating a public journal and write about your days in more depth for us members to follow along your journey and offer support to you by way of posting in your journal.

    Last but not least: Good luck on your journey here, make sure to really give it a try with all your heart!

    Hi Oba, don't be to harsh on yourself for relapsing. 11 days is a good streak. Try to beat it the next time. Also, wishing you loads of strength and good luck on your journey away from PMO. You can do it!
